Uncle Sam wants You
Uncle Sam wants You
He's lyin' about El Salvador and Nicaragua, baby
While our so called newsmen beg for more
A million dollars here or there will never be missed
To fight a communist conspiracy that does not exist
He's depending on our silence
While he orchestrates our fear
If our neighbors are so satisfied
Why they comin' here
It's time to vote
Vote that mutha out
He don't understand the modern world
And he's running out of time
How can he deal with the 80's
When he thinks it's 1949
Whatever money don't go south goes to the Philippines
With stolen dignity
From people his own age
Who can't afford to dream
It's time to vote
Vote that mutha out
Uncle Sam wants You
Uncle Sam wants You
We're comin' to get you
He ain't talkin' to the Russians until election time
I guess that ain't too important these days
And he thinks it's good military strategy
To have an enemy 90 miles away
He's got every death squad on his payroll
Who cares as long as they stay out of sight
He's mortgaged all our futures
For a final moment in the spotlight
Our environment is a memory
And our children cannot read
300 dead in Lebanon
What's it gonna be
It's time to vote
Vote that mutha out
Uncle Sam wants You
Uncle Sam wants You
Uncle Sam wants You
He's lyin' about El Salvador and Nicaragua, baby
While our so called newsmen beg for more
A million dollars here or there will never be missed
To fight a communist conspiracy that does not exist
